BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

C-type lectin-like-1 (CLL-1, also known as CLEC-1, CLEC12A, MICL, Dendritic Cell-Associated Lectin-1 (DCAL-1), and DCAL-2) is a glycoprotein receptor and member of a family of C-type lectin-like receptors involved in the regulation of cell proliferation and immune regulation. CLL-1 is expressed in hematopoietic cells, primarily on innate immune cells including monocytes, granulocytes, dendritic cells, as well as myeloid progenitor cells. Van Rhenen et al., Blood 2007:110(7). CLL-1 has been implicated in the regulation of myeloid cell proliferation and differentiation (Bakker et al., Cancer Res. 64:8443-8450 (2004); Marshall et al., J. Biol. Chem. 279:14792-14802 (2004)), and is present on acute myeloid (myelogenous) leukemia (AML) cells as well as on leukemic stem cells (Zhao et al., Haematologica 2010, 95(1):71-78).

Accordingly, CLL-1 has been implicated in multiple diseases, including but not limited to, acute myeloid (myelogenous) leukemia (AML), chronic myeloid (myelogenous) leukemia (CML), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia, atypical chronic myeloid leukemia, acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), acute monocytic leukemia, acute monoblastic leukemia, acute erythroid leukemia, acute megakaryoblastic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), myeloproliferative disorder, myeloid neoplasm, myeloid sarcoma), Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm (BPDCN), or combinations thereof.

CLL-1 may additionally play a role in inflammatory or autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, allergies, asthma, Crohn's disease, IBD, IBS, fibromyalgia, mastocytosis, and Celiac disease.

Human CLL-1 protein comprises a polypeptide of the following amino acid sequence:

Additional sequence information is contained in the CLL-1 Uniprot listing at: www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q5QGZ9, as well as NCBI Reference Sequence NP_612210.4 (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/NP_612210.4).

When referring to CLL-1, it will be appreciated that reference thereto encompasses fragments thereof, as well as related polypeptides, which include, but are not limited to, allelic variants, splice variants, derivative variants, substitution variants, deletion variants, and/or insertion variants including the addition of an N-terminal methionine, fusion polypeptides, and interspecies homologs. In certain embodiments, a CLL-1 polypeptide includes terminal residues, such as, but not limited to, leader sequence residues, targeting residues, amino terminal methionine residues, lysine residues, tag residues and/or fusion protein residues.

Certain antibodies to CLL-1 are described in U.S. Pat. No. 8,536,310 and in U.S. Pat. No. 9,163,090.

Engineered immune cells have been shown to possess desired qualities in therapeutic treatments, particularly in oncology. Two main types of engineered immune cells are those that contain chimeric antigen receptors (termed “CARs” or “CAR-Ts”) and T-cell receptors (“TCRs”). These engineered cells are engineered to endow them with antigen specificity while retaining or enhancing their ability to recognize and kill a target cell. Chimeric antigen receptors may comprise, for example, (i) an antigen-specific component (“antigen binding molecule”), (ii) an extracellular domain, (iii) one or more costimulatory domains, and (iv) one or more activating domains. Each domain may be heterogeneous, that is, comprised of sequences derived from (or corresponding to) different protein chains. Chimeric antigen receptor-expressing immune cells (such as T cells) may be used in various therapies, including cancer therapies. It will be appreciated that costimulating domains may be used to enhance the activation of CAR-expressing cells against target antigens, and therefore increase the potency of adoptive immunotherapy.

Certain CARs to CLL-1 have been described in, e.g., U.S. Patent Application 20160051651 (PCT UJS2015/041337).

T cells can be engineered to possess specificity to one or more desired targets. For example, T cells can be transduced with DNA or other genetic material encoding an antigen binding molecule, such as one or more single chain variable fragment (“scFv”) of an antibody, in conjunction with one or more signaling molecules, and/or one or more activating domains, such as CD3 zeta.

In addition to the CAR-T cells' ability to recognize and destroy the targeted cells, successful T cell therapy benefits from the CAR-T cells' ability to persist and maintain the ability to proliferate in response to antigen.

T cell receptors (TCRs) are molecules found on the surface of T cells that are responsible for recognizing antigen fragments as peptides bound to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. The TCR is comprised of two different protein chains—in approximately 95% of human TCRs, the TCR consists of an alpha (α) and beta (β) chain. In approximately 5% of human T cells the TCR consists of gamma and delta (γ/δ) chains. Each chain is composed of two extracellular domains: a variable (V) region and a constant (C) region, both of the immunoglobulin superfamily. As in other immunoglobulins, the variable domains of the TCR α-chain and β-chain (or gamma and delta (γ/δ) chains) each have three hypervariable or complementarity determining regions (CDRs). When the TCR engages with antigenic peptide and MHC (peptide/MHC), the T cell becomes activated, enabling it to attack and destroy the target cell.

However, current therapies have shown varying levels of effectiveness with undesired side effects. Therefore, a need exists to identify novel and improved therapies for treating CLL-1 related diseases and disorders.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

It will be appreciated that chimeric antigen receptors (CARs or CAR-Ts) and T cell receptors (TCRs) are genetically engineered receptors. These engineered receptors can be readily inserted into and expressed by immune cells, including T cells in accordance with techniques known in the art. With a CAR, a single receptor can be programmed to both recognize a specific antigen and, when bound to that antigen, activate the immune cell to attack and destroy the cell bearing that antigen. When these antigens exist on tumor cells, an immune cell that expresses the CAR can target and kill the tumor cell.

CARs can be engineered to bind to an antigen (such as a cell-surface antigen) by incorporating an antigen binding molecule that interacts with that targeted antigen. Preferably, the antigen binding molecule is an antibody fragment thereof, and more preferably one or more single chain antibody fragment (“scFv”). An scFv is a single chain antibody fragment having the variable regions of the heavy and light chains of an antibody linked together. See U.S. Pat. Nos. 7,741,465, and 6,319,494 as well as Eshhar et al., Cancer Immunol Immunotherapy (1997) 45: 131-136. An scFv retains the parent antibody's ability to specifically interact with target antigen. scFvs are preferred for use in chimeric antigen receptors because they can be engineered to be expressed as part of a single chain along with the other CAR components. Id. See also Krause et al., J. Exp. Med., Volume 188, No. 4, 1998 (619-626); Finney et al., Journal of Immunology, 1998, 161: 2791-2797. It will be appreciated that the antigen binding molecule is typically contained within the extracellular portion of the CAR such that it is capable of recognizing and binding to the antigen of interest. Bispecific and multispecific CARs are contemplated within the scope of the invention, with specificity to more than one target of interest.

Costimulatory Domains

Chimeric antigen receptors may incorporate costimulatory (signaling) domains to increase their potency. See U.S. Pat. Nos. 7,741,465, and 6,319,494, as well as Krause et al. and Finney et al. (supra), Song et al., Blood 119:696-706 (2012); Kalos et al., Sci Transl. Med. 3:95 (2011); Porter et al., N. Engl. J. Med. 365:725-33 (2011), and Gross et al., Annu. Rev. Pharmacol. Toxicol. 56:59-83 (2016). For example, CD28 is a costimulatory protein found naturally on T-cells. A variety of costimulatory molecules are set forth herein, but it will be appreciated that additional costimulatory molecules are also included within the scope of this invention.

This construct demonstrates the ability to retain (and at times exceed) the properties of CD28-containing CARs, despite truncation (removal) of multiple amino acids from the extracellular CD28 sequence. These benefits include equivalent or superior cytokine production, equivalent or superior cytolytic activity, and/or equivalent or superior CAR expression levels.

It is to be further understood that wherever aspects are described herein with the language “comprising,” otherwise analogous aspects described in terms of “consisting of” and/or “consisting essentially of” are also provided.

Additionally, the terms “about” or “comprising essentially of” refer to a value or composition that is within an acceptable error range for the particular value or composition as determined by one of ordinary skill in the art, which will depend in part on how the value or composition is measured or determined, i.e., the limitations of the measurement system. For example, “about” or “comprising essentially of” can mean within 1 or more than 1 standard deviation per the practice in the art. Alternatively, “about” or “comprising essentially of” can mean a range of up to 10% (i.e., ±10%). For example, about 3 mg can include any number between 2.7 mg and 3.3 mg (for 10%). Furthermore, particularly with respect to biological systems or processes, the terms can mean up to an order of magnitude or up to 5-fold of a value. When particular values or compositions are provided in the application and claims, unless otherwise stated, the meaning of “about” or “comprising essentially of” should be assumed to be within an acceptable error range for that particular value or composition.

Antigen binding molecules are within the scope of the invention. An “antigen binding molecule” as used herein means any protein that binds a specified target antigen. In the instant application, the specified target antigen is the CLL-1 protein or fragment thereof.

In certain embodiments, the present invention is directed to an isolated polynucleotide encoding an anti-CLL-1 antigen binding molecule which cross competes with one or more antibodies described herein or an antigen binding molecule thereof encoded by the polynucleotide. In one embodiment, the invention is directed to isolated polynucleotides encoding an anti-CLL-1 antigen binding molecule thereof which binds to the same epitope as one or more of the antigen binding molecules described herein.

In some embodiments, the antigen binding molecule binds to an antigen on a tumor cell. In some embodiments, the antigen binding molecule binds to an antigen on a cell involved in a hyperproliferative disease or to a viral or bacterial antigen. In further embodiments, the antigen binding molecule is an antibody of fragment thereof, including one or more of the complementarity determining regions (CDRs) thereof. In further embodiments, the antigen binding molecule is a single chain variable fragment (scFv).

The term “immunologically functional fragment” (or “fragment”) of an antigen binding molecule is a species of antigen binding molecule comprising a portion (regardless of how that portion is obtained or synthesized) of an antibody that lacks at least some of the amino acids present in a full-length chain but which is still capable of specifically binding to an antigen. Such fragments are biologically active in that they bind to the target antigen and can compete with other antigen binding molecules, including intact antibodies, for binding to a given epitope. In some embodiments, the fragments are neutralizing fragments. In some embodiments, the fragments can block or reduce the activity of CLL-1. In one aspect, such a fragment will retain at least one CDR present in the full-length light or heavy chain, and in some embodiments will comprise a single heavy chain and/or light chain or portion thereof. These fragments can be produced by recombinant DNA techniques, or can be produced by enzymatic or chemical cleavage of antigen binding molecules, including intact antibodies.

Immunologically functional immunoglobulin fragments include, but are not limited to, scFv fragments, Fab fragments (Fab′, F(ab′)₂, and the like), one or more CDR, a diabody (heavy chain variable domain on the same polypeptide as a light chain variable domain, connected via a short peptide linker that is too short to permit pairing between the two domains on the same chain), domain antibodies, and single-chain antibodies. These fragments can be derived from any mammalian source, including but not limited to human, mouse, rat, camelid or rabbit. As will be appreciated by one of skill in the art, an antigen binding molecule can include non-protein components.

Variants of the antigen binding molecules are also within the scope of the invention, e.g., variable light and/or variable heavy chains that each have at least 70-80%, 80-85%, 85-90%, 90-95%, 95-97%, 97-99%, or above 99% identity to the amino acid sequences of the sequences described herein. In some instances, such molecules include at least one heavy chain and one light chain, whereas in other instances the variant forms contain two identical light chains and two identical heavy chains (or subparts thereof). A skilled artisan will be able to determine suitable variants of the antigen binding molecules as set forth herein using well-known techniques. In certain embodiments, one skilled in the art can identify suitable areas of the molecule that may be changed without destroying activity by targeting regions not believed to be important for activity.

In certain embodiments, the polypeptide structure of the antigen binding molecules is based on antibodies, including, but not limited to, monoclonal antibodies, bispecific antibodies, minibodies, domain antibodies, synthetic antibodies (sometimes referred to herein as “antibody mimetics”), chimeric antibodies, humanized antibodies, human antibodies, antibody fusions (sometimes referred to herein as “antibody conjugates”), and fragments thereof, respectively. In some embodiments, the antigen binding molecule comprises or consists of avimers.

In some embodiments, an antigen binding molecule to CLL-1 is administered as part of a CAR, TCR, or other immune cell. In such immune cells, the antigen binding molecule to CLL-1 can be under the control of the same promoter region, or a separate promoter. In certain embodiments, the genes encoding protein agents and/or an antigen binding molecule to CLL-1 can be in separate vectors.

The invention further provides for pharmaceutical compositions comprising an antigen binding molecule to CLL-1 together with a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent, carrier, solubilizer, emulsifier, preservative and/or adjuvant. In certain embodiments, pharmaceutical compositions will include more than one different antigen binding molecule to CLL-1. In certain embodiments, pharmaceutical compositions will include more than one antigen binding molecule to CLL-1 wherein the antigen binding molecules to CLL-1 bind more than one epitope. In some embodiments, the various antigen binding molecules will not compete with one another for binding to CLL-1.

In other embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition can be selected for parenteral delivery, for inhalation, or for delivery through the digestive tract, such as orally. The preparation of such pharmaceutically acceptable compositions is within the ability of one skilled in the art. In certain embodiments, buffers are used to maintain the composition at physiological pH or at a slightly lower pH, typically within a pH range of from about 5 to about 8. In certain embodiments, when parenteral administration is contemplated, a therapeutic composition can be in the form of a pyrogen-free, parenterally acceptable aqueous solution comprising a desired antigen binding molecule to CLL-1, with or without additional therapeutic agents, in a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle. In certain embodiments, a vehicle for parenteral injection is sterile distilled water in which an antigen binding molecule to CLL-1, with or without at least one additional therapeutic agent, is formulated as a sterile, isotonic solution, properly preserved. In certain embodiments, the preparation can involve the formulation of the desired molecule with polymeric compounds (such as polylactic acid or polyglycolic acid), beads or liposomes that can provide for the controlled or sustained release of the product which can then be delivered via a depot injection. In certain embodiments, implantable drug delivery devices can be used to introduce the desired molecule.

In some embodiments, the antigen binding molecule is used as a diagnostic or validation tool. The antigen binding molecule can be used to assay the amount of CLL-1 present in a sample and/or subject. In some embodiments, the diagnostic antigen binding molecule is not neutralizing. In some embodiments, the antigen binding molecules disclosed herein are used or provided in an assay kit and/or method for the detection of CLL-1 in mammalian tissues or cells in order to screen/diagnose for a disease or disorder associated with changes in levels of CLL-1. The kit can comprise an antigen binding molecule that binds CLL-1, along with means for indicating the binding of the antigen binding molecule with CLL-1, if present, and optionally CLL-1 protein levels.

The antigen binding molecules will be further understood in view of the definitions and descriptions below.

An “Fc” region comprises two heavy chain fragments comprising the CH1 and CH2 domains of an antibody. The two heavy chain fragments are held together by two or more disulfide bonds and by hydrophobic interactions of the CH3 domains.

A “Fab fragment” comprises one light chain and the CH1 and variable regions of one heavy chain. The heavy chain of a Fab molecule cannot form a disulfide bond with another heavy chain molecule. A “Fab′” fragment” comprises one light chain and a portion of one heavy chain that contains the VH domain and the CH1 domain and also the region between the CH1 and CH2 domains, such that an interchain disulfide bond can be formed between the two heavy chains of two Fab′ fragments to form an F(ab′)₂ molecule. An “F(ab′)₂ fragment” contains two light chains and two heavy chains containing a portion of the constant region between the CH1 and CH2 domains, such that an interchain disulfide bond is formed between the two heavy chains. An F(ab′)₂ fragment thus is composed of two Fab′ fragments that are held together by a disulfide bond between the two heavy chains.

The “Fv region” comprises the variable regions from both the heavy and light chains, but lacks the constant regions.

“Single chain variable fragment” (“scFv”, also termed “single-chain antibody”) refers to Fv molecules in which the heavy and light chain variable regions have been connected by a flexible linker to form a single polypeptide chain, which forms an antigen binding region. See PCT application WO88/01649 and U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,946,778 and 5,260,203, the disclosures of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety.

A “bivalent antigen binding molecule” comprises two antigen binding sites. In some instances, the two binding sites have the same antigen specificities. Bivalent antigen binding molecules can be bispecific. A “multispecific antigen binding molecule” is one that targets more than one antigen or epitope. A “bispecific,” “dual-specific” or “bifunctional” antigen binding molecule is a hybrid antigen binding molecule or antibody, respectively, having two different antigen binding sites. The two binding sites of a bispecific antigen binding molecule will bind to two different epitopes, which can reside on the same or different protein targets.

An antigen binding molecule is said to “specifically bind” its target antigen when the dissociation constant (K_(d)) is ˜1×10⁻⁷ M. The antigen binding molecule specifically binds antigen with “high affinity” when the K_(d) is 1-5×10⁻⁹ M, and with “very high affinity” when the K_(d) is 1-5×10⁻¹⁰ M. In one embodiment, the antigen binding molecule has a K_(d) of 10⁻⁹ M. In one embodiment, the off-rate is <1×10⁻⁵. In other embodiments, the antigen binding molecules will bind to human CLL-1 with a K_(d) of between about 10⁻⁷ M and 10⁻¹³ M, and in yet another embodiment the antigen binding molecules will bind with a K_(d) 1.0-5×10⁻¹⁰.

In some embodiments, the antibody or antigen binding molecules of the present invention specifically bind CLL-1 (e.g., hCLL-1). In certain embodiments, an anti-CLL-1 antibody or antigen binding molecule of the present invention binds human CLL-1 with a K_(D) of less than 1×10⁻⁶ M, less than 1×10⁻⁷ M, less than 1×10⁻⁸ M, or less than 1×10⁻⁹ M. In one particular embodiment, the anti-CLL-1 antibody or antigen binding molecules binds human CLL-1 with a K_(D) of less than 1×10⁻⁷ M. In another embodiment, the anti-CLL-1 antibody or antigen binding molecules binds human CLL-1 with a K_(D) of less than 1×10⁻⁸ M.

An antigen binding molecule is said to be “selective” when it binds to one target more tightly than it binds to a second target.

The term “antibody” refers to an intact immunoglobulin of any isotype, or a fragment thereof that can compete with the intact antibody for specific binding to the target antigen, and includes, for instance, chimeric, humanized, fully human, and bispecific antibodies. An “antibody” is a species of an antigen binding molecule as defined herein. An intact antibody will generally comprise at least two full-length heavy chains and two full-length light chains, but in some instances can include fewer chains such as antibodies naturally occurring in camelids which can comprise only heavy chains. Antibodies can be derived solely from a single source, or can be chimeric, that is, different portions of the antibody can be derived from two different antibodies as described further below. The antigen binding molecules, antibodies, or binding fragments can be produced in hybridomas, by recombinant DNA techniques, or by enzymatic or chemical cleavage of intact antibodies. Unless otherwise indicated, the term “antibody” includes, in addition to antibodies comprising two full-length heavy chains and two full-length light chains, derivatives, variants, fragments, and muteins thereof, examples of which are described below. Furthermore, unless explicitly excluded, antibodies include monoclonal antibodies, bispecific antibodies, minibodies, domain antibodies, synthetic antibodies (sometimes referred to herein as “antibody mimetics”), chimeric antibodies, humanized antibodies, human antibodies, antibody fusions (sometimes referred to herein as “antibody conjugates”) and fragments thereof, respectively.

The variable regions typically exhibit the same general structure of relatively conserved framework regions (FR) joined by the 3 hypervariable regions (i.e., “CDRs”). The CDRs from the two chains of each pair typically are aligned by the framework regions, which can enable binding to a specific epitope. From N-terminal to C-terminal, both light and heavy chain variable regions typically comprise the domains FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3 and FR4. By convention, CDR regions in the heavy chain are typically referred to as HC CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3. The CDR regions in the light chain are typically referred to as LC CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3. The assignment of amino acids to each domain is typically in accordance with the definitions of Kabat, Chothia, or the AbM definition.

The term “Kabat numbering” and like terms are recognized in the art and refer to a system of numbering amino acid residues in the heavy and light chain variable regions of an antibody, or an antigen-binding portion thereof. In certain aspects, the CDRs of an antibody can be determined according to the Kabat numbering system (see, e.g., Kabat E A & Wu T T (1971) Ann NY Acad Sci 190: 382-391 and Kabat E A et al., (1991) Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, Fifth Edition, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, NIH Publication No. 91-3242). Using the Kabat numbering system, CDRs within an antibody heavy chain molecule are typically present at amino acid positions 31 to 35, which optionally can include one or two additional amino acids, following 35 (referred to in the Kabat numbering scheme as 35A and 35B) (CDR1), amino acid positions 50 to 65 (CDR2), and amino acid positions 95 to 102 (CDR3). Using the Kabat numbering system, CDRs within an antibody light chain molecule are typically present at amino acid positions 24 to 34 (CDR1), amino acid positions 50 to 56 (CDR2), and amino acid positions 89 to 97 (CDR3). In a specific embodiment, the CDRs of the antibodies described herein have been determined according to the Kabat numbering scheme.

In certain aspects, the CDRs of an antibody can be determined according to the Chothia numbering scheme, which refers to the location of immunoglobulin structural loops (see, e.g., Chothia C & Lesk A M, (1987), J Mol Biol 196: 901-917; Al-Lazikani B et al., (1997) J Mol Biol 273: 927-948; Chothia C et al., (1992) J Mol Biol 227: 799-817; Tramontano A et al., (1990) J Mol Biol 215(1): 175-82; and U.S. Pat. No. 7,709,226). Typically, when using the Kabat numbering convention, the Chothia CDR-H1 loop is present at heavy chain amino acids 26 to 32, 33, or 34, the Chothia CDR-H2 loop is present at heavy chain amino acids 52 to 56, and the Chothia CDR-H3 loop is present at heavy chain amino acids 95 to 102, while the Chothia CDR-L1 loop is present at light chain amino acids 24 to 34, the Chothia CDR-L2 loop is present at light chain amino acids 50 to 56, and the Chothia CDR-L3 loop is present at light chain amino acids 89 to 97. The end of the Chothia CDR-HI loop when numbered using the Kabat numbering convention varies between H32 and H34 depending on the length of the loop (this is because the Kabat numbering scheme places the insertions at H35A and H35B; if neither 35A nor 35B is present, the loop ends at 32; if only 35A is present, the loop ends at 33; if both 35A and 35B are present, the loop ends at 34).

In a specific embodiment, the CDRs of the antibodies described herein have been determined according to the Chothia numbering scheme.

A number of definitions of the CDRs are commonly in use: Kabat numbering, Chothia numbering, AbM numbering, or contact numbering. The AbM definition is a compromise between the two used by Oxford Molecular's AbM antibody modelling software. The contact definition is based on an analysis of the available complex crystal structures.

As used herein, the term “heavy chain” when used in reference to an antibody can refer to any distinct type, e.g., alpha (α), delta (δ), epsilon (ε), gamma (γ) and mu (μ), based on the amino acid sequence of the constant domain, which give rise to IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG and IgM classes of antibodies, respectively, including subclasses of IgG, e.g., IgG₁, IgG₂, IgG₃ and IgG₄.

As used herein, the term “light chain” when used in reference to an antibody can refer to any distinct type, e.g., kappa (κ) or lambda (λ) based on the amino acid sequence of the constant domains. Light chain amino acid sequences are well known in the art. In specific embodiments, the light chain is a human light chain.

The term “variable region” or “variable domain” refers to a portion of the light and/or heavy chains of an antibody, typically including approximately the amino-terminal 120 to 130 amino acids in the heavy chain and about 100 to 110 amino terminal amino acids in the light chain. The variable region of an antibody typically determines specificity of a particular antibody for its target.

Variability is not evenly distributed throughout the variable domains of antibodies or antigen binding molecules; it is concentrated in sub-domains of each of the heavy and light chain variable regions. These subdomains are called “hypervariable regions” or “complementarity determining regions” (CDRs) as further described herein. The more conserved (i.e., non-hypervariable) portions of the variable domains are called the “framework” regions (FRM or FR) and provide a scaffold for the six CDRs in three dimensional space to form an antigen-binding surface. The variable domains of naturally occurring heavy and light chains each comprise four FRM regions (FR1, FR2, FR3, and FR4), largely adopting a β-sheet configuration, connected by three hypervariable regions, which form loops connecting, and in some cases forming part of, the β-sheet structure. The hypervariable regions in each chain are held together in close proximity by the FRM and, with the hypervariable regions from the other chain, contribute to the formation of the antigen-binding site (see Kabat et al., described further herein.

Typically, CDRs form a loop structure that can be classified as a canonical structure. The term “canonical structure” refers to the main chain conformation that is adopted by the antigen binding (CDR) loops. From comparative structural studies, it has been found that five of the six antigen binding loops have only a limited repertoire of available conformations. Each canonical structure can be characterized by the torsion angles of the polypeptide backbone. Correspondent loops between antibodies may, therefore, have very similar three dimensional structures, despite high amino acid sequence variability in most parts of the loops (Chothia and Lesk, J. MoI. Biol., 1987, 196: 901; Chothia et al., Nature, 1989, 342: 877; Martin and Thornton, J. MoI. Biol, 1996, 263: 800). Furthermore, there is a relationship between the adopted loop structure and the amino acid sequences surrounding it. The conformation of a particular canonical class is determined by the length of the loop and the amino acid residues residing at key positions within the loop, as well as within the conserved framework (i.e., outside of the loop). Assignment to a particular canonical class can therefore be made based on the presence of these key amino acid residues.

The term “canonical structure” may also include considerations as to the linear sequence of the antibody, for example, as catalogued by Kabat (Kabat et al., herein). The Kabat numbering scheme (system) is a widely adopted standard for numbering the amino acid residues of an antibody variable domain in a consistent manner and is the preferred scheme applied in the present invention as also mentioned elsewhere herein. Additional structural considerations can also be used to determine the canonical structure of an antibody. For example, those differences not fully reflected by Kabat numbering can be described by the numbering system of Chothia et al. and/or revealed by other techniques, for example, crystallography and two- or three-dimensional computational modeling. Accordingly, a given antibody sequence may be placed into a canonical class which allows for, among other things, identifying appropriate chassis sequences (e.g., based on a desire to include a variety of canonical structures in a library). Kabat numbering of antibody amino acid sequences and structural considerations as described by Chothia et al. (herein) and their implications for construing canonical aspects of antibody structure, are described in the literature. The subunit structures and three-dimensional configurations of different classes of immunoglobulins are well known in the art. For a review of the antibody structure, see Antibodies: A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, eds. Harlow et al., 1988.

The CDR3 of the light chain and, particularly, the CDR3 of the heavy chain may constitute the most important determinants in antigen binding within the light and heavy chain variable regions. In some antibody constructs, the heavy chain CDR3 appears to constitute the major area of contact between the antigen and the antibody. In vitro selection schemes in which CDR3 alone is varied can be used to vary the binding properties of an antibody or determine which residues contribute to the binding of an antigen. Hence, CDR3 is typically the greatest source of molecular diversity within the antibody-binding site. H3, for example, can be as short as two amino acid residues or greater than 26 amino acids.

As used herein, the terms “constant region” and “constant domain” are interchangeable and have a meaning common in the art. The constant region is an antibody portion, e.g., a carboxyl terminal portion of a light and/or heavy chain which is not directly involved in binding of an antibody to antigen but which can exhibit various effector functions, such as interaction with the Fc receptor. The constant region of an immunoglobulin molecule generally has a more conserved amino acid sequence relative to an immunoglobulin variable domain.

“Binding affinity” generally refers to the strength of the sum total of noncovalent interactions between a single binding site of a molecule (e.g., an antibody) and its binding partner (e.g., an antigen). Unless indicated otherwise, as used herein, “binding affinity” refers to intrinsic binding affinity which reflects a 1:1 interaction between members of a binding pair (e.g., antibody and antigen). The affinity of a molecule X for its partner Y can generally be represented by the dissociation constant (K_(D)). Affinity can be measured and/or expressed in a number of ways known in the art, including, but not limited to, equilibrium dissociation constant (K_(D)), and equilibrium association constant (K_(A)). The K_(D) is calculated from the quotient of k_(off)/k_(on), whereas K_(A) is calculated from the quotient of k_(on)/k_(off). k_(on) refers to the association rate constant of, e.g., an antibody to an antigen, and k_(off) refers to the dissociation of, e.g., an antibody to an antigen. The k_(on) and k_(off) can be determined by techniques known to one of ordinary skill in the art, such as BIAcore® or KinExA.

The term “neutralizing” refers to an antigen binding molecule, scFv, or antibody, respectively, that binds to a ligand and prevents or reduces the biological effect of that ligand. This can be done, for example, by directly blocking a binding site on the ligand or by binding to the ligand and altering the ligand's ability to bind through indirect means (such as structural or energetic alterations in the ligand). In some embodiments, the term can also denote an antigen binding molecule that prevents the protein to which it is bound from performing a biological function.

The term “target” or “antigen” refers to a molecule or a portion of a molecule capable of being bound by an antigen binding molecule. In certain embodiments, a target can have one or more epitopes.

The term “compete” when used in the context of antigen binding molecules that compete for the same epitope means competition between antigen binding molecules as determined by an assay in which the antigen binding molecule (e.g., antibody or immunologically functional fragment thereof) being tested prevents or inhibits (e.g., reduces) specific binding of a reference antigen binding molecule to an antigen. Numerous types of competitive binding assays can be used to determine if one antigen binding molecule competes with another, for example: solid phase direct or indirect radioimmunoassay (RIA), solid phase direct or indirect enzyme immunoassay (EIA), sandwich competition assay (Stahli et al., 1983, Methods in Enzymology 9:242-253); solid phase direct biotin-avidin EIA (Kirkland et al., 1986, J. Immunol. 137:3614-3619), solid phase direct labeled assay, solid phase direct labeled sandwich assay (Harlow and Lane, 1988, Antibodies, A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Press); solid phase direct label RIA using 1-125 label (Morel et al., 1988, Molec. Immunol. 25:7-15); solid phase direct biotin-avidin EIA (Cheung, et al., 1990, Virology 176:546-552); and direct labeled RIA (Moldenhauer et al., 1990, Scand. J. Immunol. 32:77-82).

As used herein, the term “epitope” refers to a localized region of an antigen to which an antibody can specifically bind. An epitope can be, for example, contiguous amino acids of a polypeptide (linear or contiguous epitope) or an epitope can, for example, come together from two or more non-contiguous regions of a polypeptide or polypeptides (conformational, non-linear, discontinuous, or non-contiguous epitope). In certain embodiments, the epitope to which an antibody binds can be determined by, e.g., NMR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction crystallography studies, ELISA assays, hydrogen/deuterium exchange coupled with mass spectrometry (e.g., liquid chromatography electrospray mass spectrometry), array-based oligo-peptide scanning assays, and/or mutagenesis mapping (e.g., site-directed mutagenesis mapping). For X-ray crystallography, crystallization may be accomplished using any of the known methods in the art (e.g., Giegé R. et al., (1994) Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr 50(Pt 4): 339-350; McPherson A (1990) Eur J Biochem 189: 1-23; Chayen N E (1997) Structure 5: 1269-1274; McPherson A (1976) J Biol Chem 251: 6300-6303). Antibody:antigen crystals may be studied using well known X-ray diffraction techniques and may be refined using computer software such as X-PLOR (Yale University, 1992, distributed by Molecular Simulations, Inc.; see e.g. Meth Enzymol (1985) volumes 114 & 115, eds Wyckoff H W et al.; U.S. 2004/0014194), and BUSTER (Bricogne G (1993) Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr 49(Pt 1): 37-60; Bricogne G (1997) Meth Enzymol 276A: 361-423, ed Carter C W; Roversi P et al., (2000) Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr 56(Pt 10): 1316-1323). Mutagenesis mapping studies may be accomplished using any method known to one of skill in the art. See, e.g., Champe M et al., (1995) J Biol Chem 270: 1388-1394 and Cunningham B C & Wells J A (1989) Science 244: 1081-1085 for a description of mutagenesis techniques, including alanine scanning mutagenesis techniques.

As used herein, the terms “label” or “labeled” refers to incorporation of a detectable marker, e.g., by incorporation of a radiolabeled amino acid or attachment to a polypeptide of biotin moieties that can be detected by marked avidin (e.g., streptavidin containing a fluorescent marker or enzymatic activity that can be detected by optical or colorimetric methods). In certain embodiments, the label or marker can also be therapeutic. Various methods of labeling polypeptides and glycoproteins are known in the art and can be used.

Methods of Treatment

Using adoptive immunotherapy, native T cells can be (i) removed from a patient, (ii) genetically engineered to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) that binds to at least one tumor antigen (iii) expanded ex vivo into a larger population of engineered T cells, and (iv) reintroduced into the patient. See e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos. 7,741,465, and 6,319,494, Eshhar et al. (Cancer Immunol, supra); Krause et al. (supra); Finney et al. (supra). After the engineered T cells are reintroduced into the patient, they mediate an immune response against cells expressing the tumor antigen. See e.g., Krause et al., J. Exp. Med., Volume 188, No. 4, 1998 (619-626). This immune response includes secretion of IL-2 and other cytokines by T cells, the clonal expansion of T cells recognizing the tumor antigen, and T cell-mediated specific killing of target-positive cells. See Hombach et al., Journal of Immun. 167: 6123-6131 (2001).

The term “lymphocyte” as used herein includes natural killer (NK) cells, T cells, or B cells. NK cells are a type of cytotoxic (cell toxic) lymphocyte that represent a major component of the inherent immune system. NK cells reject tumors and cells infected by viruses. It works through the process of apoptosis or programmed cell death. They were termed “natural killers” because they do not require activation in order to kill cells. T-cells play a major role in cell-mediated-immunity (no antibody involvement). Its T-cell receptors (TCR) differentiate themselves from other lymphocyte types. The thymus, a specialized organ of the immune system, is primarily responsible for the T cell's maturation. There are six types of T-cells, namely: Helper T-cells (e.g., CD4+ cells), Cytotoxic T-cells (also known as TC, cytotoxic T lymphocyte, CTL, T-killer cell, cytolytic T cell, CD8+ T-cells or killer T cell), Memory T-cells ((i) stem memory T_(SCM) cells, like naive cells, are CD45RO−, CCR7+, CD45RA+, CD62L+ (L-selectin), CD27+, CD28+ and IL-7Rα+, but they also express large amounts of CD95, IL-2Rβ, CXCR3, and LFA-1, and show numerous functional attributes distinctive of memory cells); (ii) central memory T_(CM) cells express L-selectin and the CCR7, they secrete IL-2, but not IFNγ or IL-4, and (iii) effector memory T_(EM) cells, however, do not express L-selectin or CCR7 but produce effector cytokines like IFNγ and IL-4), Regulatory T-cells (Tregs, suppressor T cells, or CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells), Natural Killer T-cells (NKT) and Gamma Delta T-cells. B-cells, on the other hand, play a principal role in humoral immunity (with antibody involvement). It makes antibodies and antigens and performs the role of antigen-presenting cells (APCs) and turns into memory B-cells after activation by antigen interaction. In mammals, immature B-cells are formed in the bone marrow, where its name is derived from.

The term “genetically engineered” or “engineered” refers to a method of modifying the genome of a cell, including, but not limited to, deleting a coding or non-coding region or a portion thereof or inserting a coding region or a portion thereof. In some embodiments, the cell that is modified is a lymphocyte, e.g., a T cell, which can either be obtained from a patient or a donor. The cell can be modified to express an exogenous construct, such as, e.g., a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) or a T cell receptor (TCR), which is incorporated into the cell's genome.

An “immune response” refers to the action of a cell of the immune system (for example, T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, natural killer (NK) cells, macrophages, eosinophils, mast cells, dendritic cells and neutrophils) and soluble macromolecules produced by any of these cells or the liver (including Abs, cytokines, and complement) that results in selective targeting, binding to, damage to, destruction of, and/or elimination from a vertebrate's body of invading pathogens, cells or tissues infected with pathogens, cancerous or other abnormal cells, or, in cases of autoimmunity or pathological inflammation, normal human cells or tissues.

The term “immunotherapy” refers to the treatment of a subject afflicted with, or at risk of contracting or suffering a recurrence of, a disease by a method comprising inducing, enhancing, suppressing or otherwise modifying an immune response. Examples of immunotherapy include, but are not limited to, T cell therapies. T cell therapy can include adoptive T cell therapy, tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) immunotherapy, autologous cell therapy, engineered autologous cell therapy (eACT), and allogeneic T cell transplantation. However, one of skill in the art would recognize that the conditioning methods disclosed herein would enhance the effectiveness of any transplanted T cell therapy. Examples of T cell therapies are described in U.S. Patent Publication Nos. 2014/0154228 and 2002/0006409, U.S. Pat. No. 5,728,388, and International Publication No. WO 2008/081035.

The T cells of the immunotherapy can come from any source known in the art. For example, T cells can be differentiated in vitro from a hematopoietic stem cell population, or T cells can be obtained from a subject. T cells can be obtained from, e.g., peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), bone marrow, lymph node tissue, cord blood, thymus tissue, tissue from a site of infection, ascites, pleural effusion, spleen tissue, and tumors. In addition, the T cells can be derived from one or more T cell lines available in the art. T cells can also be obtained from a unit of blood collected from a subject using any number of techniques known to the skilled artisan, such as FICOLL™ separation and/or apheresis. Additional methods of isolating T cells for a T cell therapy are disclosed in U.S. Patent Publication No. 2013/0287748, which is herein incorporated by references in its entirety.

The term “engineered Autologous Cell Therapy,” which can be abbreviated as “eACT™,” also known as adoptive cell transfer, is a process by which a patient's own T cells are collected and subsequently genetically altered to recognize and target one or more antigens expressed on the cell surface of one or more specific tumor cells or malignancies. T cells can be engineered to express, for example, chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) or T cell receptor (TCR). CAR positive (+) T cells are engineered to express an extracellular single chain variable fragment (scFv) with specificity for a particular tumor antigen linked to an intracellular signaling part comprising at least one costimulatory domain and at least one activating domain. The costimulatory domain can be derived from (or correspond to), e.g., CD28, and the activating domain can be derived from (or correspond to) e.g., CD3-zeta. In certain embodiments, the CAR is designed to have two, three, four, or more costimulatory domains.

The term “autologous” refers to any material derived from the same individual to which it is later to be re-introduced. For example, the engineered autologous cell therapy (eACT™) method described herein involves collection of lymphocytes from a patient, which are then engineered to express, e.g., a CAR construct, and then administered back to the same patient.

The term “allogeneic” refers to any material derived from one individual which is then introduced to another individual of the same species, e.g., allogeneic T cell transplantation.

In certain embodiments, the compositions described herein are administered in conjunction with a cytokine. “Cytokine” as used herein is meant to refer to proteins released by one cell population that act on another cell as intercellular mediators. Examples of cytokines are lymphokines, monokines, and traditional polypeptide hormones. Included among the cytokines are growth hormones such as human growth hormone, N-methionyl human growth hormone, and bovine growth hormone; parathyroid hormone; thyroxine; insulin; proinsulin; relaxin; prorelaxin; glycoprotein hormones such as follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), and luteinizing hormone (LH); hepatic growth factor (HGF); fibroblast growth factor (FGF); prolactin; placental lactogen; mullerian-inhibiting substance; mouse gonadotropin-associated peptide; inhibin; activin; vascular endothelial growth factor; integrin; thrombopoietin (TPO); nerve growth factors (NGFs) such as NGF-beta; platelet-growth factor; transforming growth factors (TGFs) such as TGF-alpha and TGF-beta; insulin-like growth factor-I and -II; erythropoietin (EPO); osteoinductive factors; interferons such as interferon-alpha, beta, and -gamma; colony stimulating factors (CSFs) such as macrophage-CSF (M-CSF); granulocyte-macrophage-CSF (GM-CSF); and granulocyte-CSF (G-CSF); interleukins (ILs) such as IL-1, IL-1alpha, IL-2, IL-3, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-9, IL-10, IL-11, IL-12; IL-15, a tumor necrosis factor such as TNF-alpha or TNF-beta; and other polypeptide factors including LIF and kit ligand (KL).

Methods of Making

A variety of known techniques can be utilized in making the polynucleotides, polypeptides, vectors, antigen binding molecules, immune cells, compositions, and the like according to the invention.

Prior to the in vitro manipulation or genetic modification of the immune cells described herein, the cells may be obtained from a subject. In some embodiments, the immune cells comprise T cells. T cells can be obtained from a number of sources, including peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), bone marrow, lymph nodes tissue, cord blood, thymus tissue, tissue from a site of infection, ascites, pleural effusion, spleen tissue, and tumors. In certain embodiments, T cells can be obtained from a unit of blood collected from the subject using any number of techniques known to the skilled person, such as FICOLL™ separation. Cells may preferably be obtained from the circulating blood of an individual by apheresis. The apheresis product typically contains lymphocytes, including T cells, monocytes, granulocytes, B cells, other nucleated white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets. In certain embodiments, the cells collected by apheresis may be washed to remove the plasma fraction, and placed in an appropriate buffer or media for subsequent processing. The cells may be washed with PBS. As will be appreciated, a washing step may be used, such as by using a semiautomated flowthrough centrifuge—for example, the Cobe™ 2991 cell processor, the Baxter CytoMate™, or the like. After washing, the cells may be resuspended in a variety of biocompatible buffers, or other saline solution with or without buffer. In certain embodiments, the undesired components of the apheresis sample may be removed.

In certain embodiments, T cells are isolated from PBMCs by lysing the red blood cells and depleting the monocytes, for example, using centrifugation through a PERCOLL™ gradient. A specific subpopulation of T cells, such as CD28⁺, CD4⁺, CD8⁺, CD45RA⁺, and CD45RO⁺ T cells can be further isolated by positive or negative selection techniques known in the art. For example, enrichment of a T cell population by negative selection can be accomplished with a combination of antibodies directed to surface markers unique to the negatively selected cells. One method for use herein is cell sorting and/or selection via negative magnetic immunoadherence or flow cytometry that uses a cocktail of monoclonal antibodies directed to cell surface markers present on the cells negatively selected. For example, to enrich for CD4⁺ cells by negative selection, a monoclonal antibody cocktail typically includes antibodies to CD14, CD20, CD11b, CD16, HLA-DR, and CD8. Flow cytometry and cell sorting may also be used to isolate cell populations of interest for use in the present invention.

PBMCs may be used directly for genetic modification with the immune cells (such as CARs or TCRs) using methods as described herein. In certain embodiments, after isolating the PBMCs, T lymphocytes can be further isolated and both cytotoxic and helper T lymphocytes can be sorted into naive, memory, and effector T cell subpopulations either before or after genetic modification and/or expansion.

In some embodiments, CD8⁺ cells are further sorted into naive, central memory, and effector cells by identifying cell surface antigens that are associated with each of these types of CD8⁺ cells. In some embodiments, the expression of phenotypic markers of central memory T cells include CD45RO, CD62L, CCR7, CD28, CD3, and CD127 and are negative for granzyme B. In some embodiments, central memory T cells are CD45RO⁺, CD62L⁺, CD8⁺ T cells. In some embodiments, effector T cells are negative for CD62L, CCR7, CD28, and CD127, and positive for granzyme B and perforin. In certain embodiments, CD4⁺ T cells are further sorted into subpopulations. For example, CD4⁺ T helper cells can be sorted into naive, central memory, and effector cells by identifying cell populations that have cell surface antigens.

The immune cells, such as T cells, can be genetically modified following isolation using known methods, or the immune cells can be activated and expanded (or differentiated in the case of progenitors) in vitro prior to being genetically modified. In another embodiment, the immune cells, such as T cells, are genetically modified with the chimeric antigen receptors described herein (e.g., transduced with a viral vector comprising one or more nucleotide sequences encoding a CAR) and then are activated and/or expanded in vitro. Methods for activating and expanding T cells are known in the art and are described, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,905,874; 6,867,041; 6,797,514; and PCT WO2012/079000, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. Generally, such methods include contacting PBMC or isolated T cells with a stimulatory molecule and a costimulatory molecule, such as anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies, generally attached to a bead or other surface, in a culture medium with appropriate cytokines, such as IL-2. Anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies attached to the same bead serve as a “surrogate” antigen presenting cell (APC). One example is The Dynabeads® system, a CD3/CD28 activator/stimulator system for physiological activation of human T cells. In other embodiments, the T cells may be activated and stimulated to proliferate with feeder cells and appropriate antibodies and cytokines using methods such as those described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,040,177; 5,827,642; and WO2012129514, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.

Certain methods for making the constructs and engineered immune cells of the invention are described in PCT application PCT/US15/14520, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. Additional methods of making the constructs and cells can be found in U.S. provisional patent application No. 62/244,036 the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.

It will be appreciated that PBMCs can further include other cytotoxic lymphocytes such as NK cells or NKT cells. An expression vector carrying the coding sequence of a chimeric receptor as disclosed herein can be introduced into a population of human donor T cells, NK cells or NKT cells. Successfully transduced T cells that carry the expression vector can be sorted using flow cytometry to isolate CD3 positive T cells and then further propagated to increase the number of these CAR expressing T cells in addition to cell activation using anti-CD3 antibodies and IL-2 or other methods known in the art as described elsewhere herein. Standard procedures are used for cryopreservation of T cells expressing the CAR for storage and/or preparation for use in a human subject. In one embodiment, the in vitro transduction, culture and/or expansion of T cells are performed in the absence of non-human animal derived products such as fetal calf serum and fetal bovine serum.

For cloning of polynucleotides, the vector may be introduced into a host cell (an isolated host cell) to allow replication of the vector itself and thereby amplify the copies of the polynucleotide contained therein. The cloning vectors may contain sequence components generally include, without limitation, an origin of replication, promoter sequences, transcription initiation sequences, enhancer sequences, and selectable markers. These elements may be selected as appropriate by a person of ordinary skill in the art. For example, the origin of replication may be selected to promote autonomous replication of the vector in the host cell.

In certain embodiments, the present disclosure provides isolated host cells containing the vector provided herein. The host cells containing the vector may be useful in expression or cloning of the polynucleotide contained in the vector. Suitable host cells can include, without limitation, prokaryotic cells, fungal cells, yeast cells, or higher eukaryotic cells such as mammalian cells. Suitable prokaryotic cells for this purpose include, without limitation, eubacteria, such as Gram-negative or Gram-positive organisms, for example, Enterobactehaceae such as Escherichia, e.g., E. coli, Enterobacter, Erwinia, Klebsiella, Proteus, Salmonella, e.g., Salmonella typhimurium, Serratia, e.g., Serratia marcescans, and Shigella, as well as Bacilli such as B. subtilis and B. licheniformis, Pseudomonas such as P. aeruginosa, and Streptomyces.

The vector can be introduced to the host cell using any suitable methods known in the art, including, without limitation, DEAE-dextran mediated delivery, calcium phosphate precipitate method, cationic lipids mediated delivery, liposome mediated transfection, electroporation, microprojectile bombardment, receptor-mediated gene delivery, delivery mediated by polylysine, histone, chitosan, and peptides. Standard methods for transfection and transformation of cells for expression of a vector of interest are well known in the art. In a further embodiment, a mixture of different expression vectors can be used in genetically modifying a donor population of immune effector cells wherein each vector encodes a different CAR as disclosed herein. The resulting transduced immune effector cells form a mixed population of engineered cells, with a proportion of the engineered cells expressing more than one different CARs.

In one embodiment, the invention provides a method of storing genetically engineered cells expressing CARs or TCRs which target a CLL-1 protein. This involves cryopreserving the immune cells such that the cells remain viable upon thawing. A fraction of the immune cells expressing the CARs can be cryopreserved by methods known in the art to provide a permanent source of such cells for the future treatment of patients afflicted with a malignancy. When needed, the cryopreserved transformed immune cells can be thawed, grown and expanded for more such cells.

As used herein, “cryopreserve” refers to the preservation of cells by cooling to sub-zero temperatures, such as (typically) 77 Kelvin or −196° C. (the boiling point of liquid nitrogen). Cryoprotective agents are often used at sub-zero temperatures to prevent the cells being preserved from damage due to freezing at low temperatures or warming to room temperature. Cryopreservative agents and optimal cooling rates can protect against cell injury. Cryoprotective agents which can be used in accordance with the invention include but are not limited to: dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) (Lovelock & Bishop, Nature (1959); 183: 1394-1395; Ashwood-Smith, Nature (1961); 190: 1204-1205), glycerol, polyvinylpyrrolidine (Rinfret, Ann. N.Y. Acad. Sci. (1960); 85: 576), and polyethylene glycol (Sloviter & Ravdin, Nature (1962); 196: 48). The preferred cooling rate is 1°-3° C./minute.

The term, “substantially pure,” is used to indicate that a given component is present at a high level. The component is desirably the predominant component present in a composition. Preferably it is present at a level of more than 30%, of more than 50%, of more than 75%, of more than 90%, or even of more than 95%, said level being determined on a dry weight/dry weight basis with respect to the total composition under consideration. At very high levels (e.g. at levels of more than 90%, of more than 95% or of more than 99%) the component can be regarded as being in “pure form.” Biologically active substances of the present invention (CARs, TCRs, isolated polypeptides, isolated nucleic acid molecules, antigen binding molecules, moieties) can be provided in a form that is substantially free of one or more contaminants with which the substance might otherwise be associated. When a composition is substantially free of a given contaminant, the contaminant will be at a low level (e.g., at a level of less than 10%, less than 5%, or less than 1% on the dry weight/dry weight basis set out above).

In some embodiments, the cells are formulated by first harvesting them from their culture medium, and then washing and concentrating the cells in a medium and container system suitable for administration (a “pharmaceutically acceptable” carrier) in a treatment-effective amount. Suitable infusion media can be any isotonic medium formulation, typically normal saline, Normosol™ R (Abbott) or Plasma-Lyte™ A (Baxter), but also 5% dextrose in water or Ringer's lactate can be utilized. The infusion medium can be supplemented with human serum albumin.

Desired treatment amounts of cells in the composition is generally at least 2 cells (for example, at least 1 CD8⁺ central memory T cell and at least 1 CD4⁺ helper T cell subset) or is more typically greater than 10² cells, and up to 10⁶, up to and including 10⁸ or 10⁹ cells and can be more than 10¹⁰ cells. The number of cells will depend upon the desired use for which the composition is intended, and the type of cells included therein. The density of the desired cells is typically greater than 10⁶ cells/ml and generally is greater than 10⁷ cells/ml, generally 10⁸ cells/ml or greater. The clinically relevant number of immune cells can be apportioned into multiple infusions that cumulatively equal or exceed 10⁵, 10⁶, 10⁷, 10⁸, 10⁹, 10¹⁰, 10¹¹, or 10¹² cells. In some aspects of the present invention, particularly since all the infused cells will be redirected to a particular target antigen (CLL-1), lower numbers of cells, in the range of 10⁶/kilogram (10⁶-10¹¹ per patient) may be administered. CAR treatments may be administered multiple times at dosages within these ranges. The cells may be autologous, allogeneic, or heterologous to the patient undergoing therapy.

The CAR expressing cell populations of the present invention may be administered either alone, or as a pharmaceutical composition in combination with diluents and/or with other components such as IL-2 or other cytokines or cell populations. Pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention may comprise a CAR or TCR expressing cell population, such as T cells, as described herein, in combination with one or more pharmaceutically or physiologically acceptable carriers, diluents or excipients. Such compositions may comprise buffers such as neutral buffered saline, phosphate buffered saline and the like; carbohydrates such as glucose, mannose, sucrose or dextrans, mannitol; proteins; polypeptides or amino acids such as glycine; antioxidants; chelating agents such as EDTA or glutathione; adjuvants (e.g., aluminum hydroxide); and preservatives. Compositions of the present invention are preferably formulated for intravenous administration.

The pharmaceutical compositions (solutions, suspensions or the like), may include one or more of the following: sterile diluents such as water for injection, saline solution, preferably physiological saline, Ringer's solution, isotonic sodium chloride, fixed oils such as synthetic mono- or diglycerides which may serve as the solvent or suspending medium, polyethylene glycols, glycerin, propylene glycol or other solvents; antibacterial agents such as benzyl alcohol or methyl paraben; antioxidants such as ascorbic acid or sodium bisulfite; chelating agents such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid; buffers such as acetates, citrates or phosphates and agents for the adjustment of tonicity such as sodium chloride or dextrose. The parenteral preparation can be enclosed in ampoules, disposable syringes or multiple dose vials made of glass or plastic. An injectable pharmaceutical composition is preferably sterile.

It will be appreciated that adverse events may be minimized by transducing the immune cells (containing one or more CARs or TCRs) with a suicide gene. It may also be desired to incorporate an inducible “on” or “accelerator” switch into the immune cells. Suitable techniques include use of inducible caspase-9 (U.S. Appl. 2011/0286980) or a thymidine kinase, before, after or at the same time, as the cells are transduced with the CAR construct of the present invention. Additional methods for introducing suicide genes and/or “on” switches include TALENS, zinc fingers, RNAi, siRNA, shRNA, antisense technology, and other techniques known in the art.

In accordance with the invention, additional on-off or other types of control switch techniques may be incorporated herein. These techniques may employ the use of dimerization domains and optional activators of such domain dimerization. These techniques include, e.g., those described by Wu et al., Science 2014 350 (6258) utilizing FKBP/Rapalog dimerization systems in certain cells, the contents of which are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety. Additional dimerization technology is described in, e.g., Fegan et al. Chem. Rev. 2010, 110, 3315-3336 as well as U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,830,462; 5,834,266; 5,869,337; and 6,165,787, the contents of which are also incorporated by reference herein in their entirety. Additional dimerization pairs may include cyclosporine-A/cyclophilin, receptor, estrogen/estrogen receptor (optionally using tamoxifen), glucocorticoids/glucocorticoid receptor, tetracycline/tetracycline receptor, vitamin D/vitamin D receptor. Further examples of dimerization technology can be found in e.g., WO 2014/127261, WO 2015/090229, US 2014/0286987, US2015/0266973, US2016/0046700, U.S. Pat. No. 8,486,693, US 2014/0171649, and US 2012/0130076, the contents of which are further incorporated by reference herein in their entirety.

It will be understood that descriptions herein are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of the invention as claimed. In this application, the use of the singular includes the plural unless specifically stated otherwise.

The section headings used herein are for organizational purposes only and are not to be construed as limiting the subject matter described. All documents, or portions of documents, cited in this application, including but not limited to patents, patent applications, articles, books, and treatises, are hereby expressly incorporated by reference in their entirety for any purpose. As utilized in accordance with the present disclosure, the following terms, unless otherwise indicated, shall be understood to have the following meanings:

In this application, the use of “or” means “and/or” unless stated otherwise. Furthermore, the use of the term “including”, as well as other forms, such as “includes” and “included”, is not limiting. Also, terms such as “element” or “component” encompass both elements and components comprising one unit and elements and components that comprise more than one subunit unless specifically stated otherwise.

The term “CLL-1 activity” includes any biological effect of CLL-1. In certain embodiments, CLL-1 activity includes the ability of CLL-1 to interact or bind to a substrate or receptor.

The term “polynucleotide,” “nucleotide,” or “nucleic acid” includes both single-stranded and double-stranded nucleotide polymers. This preferably includes isolated polynucleotides, nucleotides or nucleic acids as defined herein. The nucleotides comprising the polynucleotide can be ribonucleotides or deoxyribonucleotides or a modified form of either type of nucleotide. Said modifications include base modifications such as bromouridine and inosine derivatives, ribose modifications such as 2′,3′-dideoxyribose, and internucleotide linkage modifications such as phosphorothioate, phosphorodithioate, phosphoroselenoate, phosphoro-diselenoate, phosphoro-anilothioate, phoshoraniladate and phosphoroamidate.

The term “oligonucleotide” refers to a polynucleotide comprising 200 or fewer nucleotides. Oligonucleotides can be single stranded or double stranded, e.g., for use in the construction of a mutant gene. Oligonucleotides can be sense or antisense oligonucleotides. An oligonucleotide can include a label, including a radiolabel, a fluorescent label, a hapten or an antigenic label, for detection assays. Oligonucleotides can be used, for example, as PCR primers, cloning primers or hybridization probes.

The term “control sequence” refers to a polynucleotide sequence that can affect the expression and processing of coding sequences to which it is ligated. The nature of such control sequences can depend upon the host organism. In particular embodiments, control sequences for prokaryotes can include a promoter, a ribosomal binding site, and a transcription termination sequence. For example, control sequences for eukaryotes can include promoters comprising one or a plurality of recognition sites for transcription factors, transcription enhancer sequences, and transcription termination sequence. “Control sequences” can include leader sequences (signal peptides) and/or fusion partner sequences.

In some embodiments, the polynucleotide of the present invention encodes a CAR or a TCR can further comprises a leader sequence or peptide (also referred to herein as a “signal peptide”). In certain embodiments, the leader peptide comprises an amino acid sequence that is at least about 75%, at least about 80%, at least about 85%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, at least about 96%, at least about 97%, at least about 98%, at least about 99%, or 100% identical to the amino acid sequence MALPVTALLLPLALLLHAARP (SEQ ID NO: 144). In some embodiments, the leader peptide comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 144.

As used herein, “operably linked” means that the components to which the term is applied are in a relationship that allows them to carry out their inherent functions under suitable conditions.

The term “vector” means any molecule or entity (e.g., nucleic acid, plasmid, bacteriophage or virus) used to transfer protein coding information into a host cell. The term “expression vector” or “expression construct” refers to a vector that is suitable for transformation of a host cell and contains nucleic acid sequences that direct and/or control (in conjunction with the host cell) expression of one or more heterologous coding regions operatively linked thereto. An expression construct can include, but is not limited to, sequences that affect or control transcription, translation, and, if introns are present, affect RNA splicing of a coding region operably linked thereto.

The term “host cell” refers to a cell that has been transformed, or is capable of being transformed, with a nucleic acid sequence and thereby expresses a gene of interest. The term includes the progeny of the parent cell, whether or not the progeny is identical in morphology or in genetic make-up to the original parent cell, so long as the gene of interest is present.

The term “transformation” refers to a change in a cell's genetic characteristics, and a cell has been transformed when it has been modified to contain new DNA or RNA. For example, a cell is transformed where it is genetically modified from its native state by introducing new genetic material via transfection, transduction, or other techniques. Following transfection or transduction, the transforming DNA can recombine with that of the cell by physically integrating into a chromosome of the cell, or can be maintained transiently as an episomal element without being replicated, or can replicate independently as a plasmid. A cell is considered to have been “stably transformed” when the transforming DNA is replicated with the division of the cell.

The term “transfection” refers to the uptake of foreign or exogenous DNA by a cell. A number of transfection techniques are well known in the art and are disclosed herein. See, e.g., Graham et al., 1973, Virology 52:456; Sambrook et al., 2001, Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, supra; Davis et al., 1986, Basic Methods in Molecular Biology, Elsevier; Chu et al., 1981, Gene 13:197.

The term “transduction” refers to the process whereby foreign DNA is introduced into a cell via viral vector. See Jones et al., (1998). Genetics: principles and analysis. Boston: Jones & Bartlett Publ.

The terms “polypeptide” or “protein” refer to a macromolecule having the amino acid sequence of a protein, including deletions from, additions to, and/or substitutions of one or more amino acids of the native sequence, and preferably no more than 8 amino acid substitutions therein. Preferably, the polypeptides or proteins are isolated as defined herein. The terms “polypeptide” and “protein” specifically encompass CLL-1 antigen binding molecules, antibodies, or sequences that have deletions from, additions to, and/or substitutions of one or more amino acid of antigen-binding protein, and preferably no more than 8 amino acid substitutions therein. The term “polypeptide fragment” refers to an isolated polypeptide that has an amino-terminal deletion, a carboxyl-terminal deletion, and/or an internal deletion as compared with the full-length native protein. Such fragments can also contain modified amino acids as compared with the native protein. Useful polypeptide fragments include immunologically functional fragments of antigen binding molecules. Useful fragments include but are not limited to one or more CDR regions, variable domains of a heavy and/or light chain, a portion of other portions of an antibody chain, and the like.

The term “isolated” means (i) free of at least some other proteins with which it would normally be found, (ii) is essentially free of other proteins from the same source, e.g., from the same species, (iii) separated from at least about 50 percent of polynucleotides, lipids, carbohydrates, or other materials with which it is associated in nature, (iv) operably associated (by covalent or noncovalent interaction) with a polypeptide with which it is not associated in nature, or (v) does not occur in nature.

A “variant” of a polypeptide (e.g., an antigen binding molecule, or an antibody) comprises an amino acid sequence wherein one or more amino acid residues are inserted into, deleted from and/or substituted into the amino acid sequence relative to another polypeptide sequence. Variants include fusion proteins.

The term “identity” refers to a relationship between the sequences of two or more polypeptide molecules or two or more nucleic acid molecules, as determined by aligning and comparing the sequences. “Percent identity” means the percent of identical residues between the amino acids or nucleotides in the compared molecules and is calculated based on the size of the smallest of the molecules being compared. For these calculations, gaps in alignments (if any) are preferably addressed by a particular mathematical model or computer program (i.e., an “algorithm”).

To calculate percent identity, the sequences being compared are typically aligned in a way that gives the largest match between the sequences. One example of a computer program that can be used to determine percent identity is the GCG program package, which includes GAP (Devereux et al., 1984, Nucl. Acid Res. 12:387; Genetics Computer Group, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wis.). The computer algorithm GAP is used to align the two polypeptides or polynucleotides for which the percent sequence identity is to be determined. The sequences are aligned for optimal matching of their respective amino acid or nucleotide (the “matched span”, as determined by the algorithm). In certain embodiments, a standard comparison matrix (see, Dayhoff et al., 1978, Atlas of Protein Sequence and Structure 5:345-352 for the PAM 250 comparison matrix; Henikoff et al., 1992, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 89:10915-10919 for the BLOSUM 62 comparison matrix) is also used by the algorithm.

As used herein, the twenty conventional (e.g., naturally occurring) amino acids and their abbreviations follow conventional usage. See Immunology—A Synthesis (2nd Edition, Golub and Gren, Eds., Sinauer Assoc., Sunderland, Mass. (1991)), which is incorporated herein by reference for any purpose. Stereoisomers (e.g., D-amino acids) of the twenty conventional amino acids, unnatural amino acids such as alpha-, alpha-disubstituted amino acids, N-alkyl amino acids, lactic acid, and other unconventional amino acids can also be suitable components for polypeptides of the present invention. Examples of unconventional amino acids include: 4-hydroxyproline, .gamma.-carboxyglutamate, epsilon-N,N,N-trimethyllysine, e-N-acetyllysine, O-phosphoserine, N-acetylserine, N-formylmethionine, 3-methylhistidine, 5-hydroxylysine, .sigma.-N-methylarginine, and other similar amino acids and imino acids (e.g., 4-hydroxyproline). In the polypeptide notation used herein, the left-hand direction is the amino terminal direction and the right-hand direction is the carboxy-terminal direction, in accordance with standard usage and convention.

Conservative amino acid substitutions can encompass non-naturally occurring amino acid residues, which are typically incorporated by chemical peptide synthesis rather than by synthesis in biological systems. These include peptidomimetics and other reversed or inverted forms of amino acid moieties. Naturally occurring residues can be divided into classes based on common side chain properties:

-   -   a) hydrophobic: norleucine, Met, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile;     -   b) neutral hydrophilic: Cys, Ser, Thr, Asn, Gln;     -   c) acidic: Asp, Glu;     -   d) basic: His, Lys, Arg;     -   e) residues that influence chain orientation: Gly, Pro; and     -   f) aromatic: Trp, Tyr, Phe.

For example, non-conservative substitutions can involve the exchange of a member of one of these classes for a member from another class. Such substituted residues can be introduced, for example, into regions of a human antibody that are homologous with non-human antibodies, or into the non-homologous regions of the molecule. Exemplary amino acid substitutions are set forth in Table 3.

The term “derivative” refers to a molecule that includes a chemical modification other than an insertion, deletion, or substitution of amino acids (or nucleic acids). In certain embodiments, derivatives comprise covalent modifications, including, but not limited to, chemical bonding with polymers, lipids, or other organic or inorganic moieties. In certain embodiments, a chemically modified antigen binding molecule can have a greater circulating half-life than an antigen binding molecule that is not chemically modified. In some embodiments, a derivative antigen binding molecule is covalently modified to include one or more water soluble polymer attachments, including, but not limited to, polyethylene glycol, polyoxyethylene glycol, or polypropylene glycol.

Peptide analogs are commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry as non-peptide drugs with properties analogous to those of the template peptide. These types of non-peptide compound are termed “peptide mimetics” or “peptidomimetics.” Fauchere, J., Adv. Drug Res., 15:29 (1986); Veber & Freidinger, TINS, p. 392 (1985); and Evans et al., J. Med. Chem., 30:1229 (1987), which are incorporated herein by reference for any purpose.

A “therapeutically effective amount,” “effective dose,” “effective amount,” or “therapeutically effective dosage” of a therapeutic agent, e.g., engineered CAR T cells, is any amount that, when used alone or in combination with another therapeutic agent, protects a subject against the onset of a disease or promotes disease regression evidenced by a decrease in severity of disease symptoms, an increase in frequency and duration of disease symptom-free periods, or a prevention of impairment or disability due to the disease affliction. The ability of a therapeutic agent to promote disease regression can be evaluated using a variety of methods known to the skilled practitioner, such as in human subjects during clinical trials, in animal model systems predictive of efficacy in humans, or by assaying the activity of the agent in in vitro assays.

The terms “patient” and “subject” are used interchangeably and include human and non-human animal subjects as well as those with formally diagnosed disorders, those without formally recognized disorders, those receiving medical attention, those at risk of developing the disorders, etc.

The term “treat” and “treatment” includes therapeutic treatments, prophylactic treatments, and applications in which one reduces the risk that a subject will develop a disorder or other risk factor. Treatment does not require the complete curing of a disorder and encompasses embodiments in which one reduces symptoms or underlying risk factors. The term “prevent” does not require the 100% elimination of the possibility of an event. Rather, it denotes that the likelihood of the occurrence of the event has been reduced in the presence of the compound or method.

Standard techniques can be used for recombinant DNA, oligonucleotide synthesis, and tissue culture and transformation (e.g., electroporation, lipofection). Enzymatic reactions and purification techniques can be performed according to manufacturer's specifications or as commonly accomplished in the art or as described herein. The foregoing techniques and procedures can be generally performed according to conventional methods well known in the art and as described in various general and more specific references that are cited and discussed throughout the present specification. See, e.g., Sambrook et al., Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual (2d ed., Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y. (1989)), which is incorporated herein by reference for any purpose.

Example 1

Determining CLL-1 CAR activity by mRNA electroporation in human PBMCs. Plasmids encoding a T7 promoter, CAR construct and a beta globin stabilizing sequence were linearize by overnight digestion of 10 ug of DNA with EcoRI and BamHI (NEB). DNA was then digested for 2 hours at 50° C. with proteinase K (Thermo Fisher™, 600 U/ml) purified with phenol/chloroform and precipitated by adding sodium acetate and two volumes of ethanol. Pellets were then dried, resuspended in RNAse/DNAse free water and quantified. 1 ug of the linear DNA was then use to generate the in vitro transcription using the mMESSAGE mMACHINE T7 Ultra (Thermo Fisher™) following the manufacturer instructions. RNA was further purified using the MEGAClear Kit (Thermo Fisher™) following the manufacturer instructions, and quantified using NanoDrop™. mRNA integrity was assessed by running an agarose gel.

Different cancer cell lines were evaluated for CLL-1 expression. Namalwa (ATCC), U937 (ATCC), HL-60 (ATCC), EoL-1 (Sigma), KG1a (ATCC) and MV4;11 (ATCC) cells were stained with anti-CLL-1 antibody conjugated to PE (BD Pharmingen™) in stain buffer (BD Pharmingen™) for 30 minutes at 4° C. Cells were then washed and resuspended in stain buffer with propidium iodide (BD Pharmingen™) prior to data acquisition. Samples were then acquired by flow cytometry and data analyzed and plotted in histograms using FlowJo™. Results for the CLL-1 expression can be seen in FIG. 1 .

PBMCs were isolated from healthy donor leukopaks (Hemacare™) using ficoll-paque density centrifugation per manufacturer's instructions. PBMCs were stimulated using OKT3 (50 ng/ml, Miltenyi Biotec™) in R10 media+IL-2 (300 IU/ml, Proleukin®, Prometheus® Therapeutics and Diagnostics). Seven days after stimulation, T cells were washed twice in Opti-MEM™ (Thermo Fisher Scientific™) and resuspended at a final concentration of 2.5×10⁷ cells/ml in Opti-MEM. 10 μg of mRNA was used per electroporation. Electroporation of cells was performed using a Gemini X2 system (Harvard Apparatus BTX™) set to deliver a single 400V pulse for 0.5 ms in 2 mm cuvettes (Harvard Apparatus BTX™). Cells were immediately transferred to R10+IL-2 media and allowed to recover. Cells were maintained at 0.5-2.0×10⁶ cells/ml prior to use in activity assays.

Six hours after mRNA electroporation, T cells were stained with biotinylated Protein L (Thermo Scientific™) in stain buffer (BD Pharmingen™) for 30 minutes at 4° C. Cells were then washed and stained with PE Streptavidin (BD Pharmingen™) in stain buffer for 30 minutes at 4° C. Cells were then washed and resuspended in stain buffer with propidium iodide (BD Pharmingen™) prior to data acquisition. Results for CAR detection are shown in FIG. 2 .

Effector cells were cultured with target cells at a 1:1 E:T ratio in R10 media 6 hours after mRNA electroporation. Cell lines tested included Namalwa, U937, HL-60, EoL-1, KG1a and MV4;11. Sixteen hours post-coculture, supernatants were analyzed by Luminex (EMD Millipore) following manufacturer instructions and target cell viability was assessed by flow cytometric analysis of propidium iodide (PI) uptake. Results corresponding to the cytokine release assay can be found in FIG. 3 . Results of the cytolytic activity assay can be found in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 .

Example 2

Determining CLL-1 CAR activity by lentiviral transduction of human PBMCs. A third generation lentiviral transfer vector containing the different CLL-1 CAR construct was used along with the ViraPower™ Lentiviral Packaging Mix (Life Technologies™) to generate the lentiviral supernatants. Briefly, a transfection mix was generated by mixing 15 ug of DNA and 22.5 ul of polyethileneimine (Polysciences™, 1 mg/ml) in 600 ul of OptiMEM™ media. The mix was incubated for 5 minutes at room temperature. Simultaneously, 293T cells (ATCC) were trypsinized, counted and a total of 10×10⁶ total cells were plated in a T75 flask along the transfection mix. Three days after the transfection, supernatants were collected and filtered through a 0.45 um filter and stored at −80 C until used.

PBMCs were isolated from healthy donor leukopaks (Hemacare™) using ficoll-paque density centrifugation per manufacturer's instructions. PBMCs were stimulated using OKT3 (50 ng/ml, Miltenyi Biotec™) in R10 media+IL-2 (300 IU/ml, Proleukin®, Prometheus® Therapeutics and Diagnostics). Forty eight hours post-stimulation, cells were transduced using lentivirus at a MOI=10. Cells were maintained at 0.5-2.0×10⁶ cells/ml prior to use in activity assays.

At day 12 post stimulation, T cells were stained with biotinylated Protein L (Thermo Scientific™) in stain buffer (BD Pharmingen™) for 30 minutes at 4° C. Cells were then washed and stained with PE Streptavidin (BD Pharmingen™) in stain buffer for 30 minutes at 4° C. Cells were then washed and resuspended in stain buffer with propidium iodide (BD Pharmingen™) prior to data acquisition. Results for CAR detection are shown in FIG. 6 .

Effector cells were cultured with target cells at a 1:1 E:T ratio in R10 media 12 days after T cell stimulation. Cell lines tested included Namalwa, U937, HL-60, EoL-1, KG1a and MV4;11. 16 hours post-coculture, supernatants were analyzed by Luminex (EMD Millipore™) following manufacturer instructions and target cell viability was assessed by flow cytometric analysis of propidium iodide (PI) uptake. Results corresponding to the cytokine release assay can be found in FIG. 7 . Results of the cytolytic activity assay can be found in FIG. 8 .

Example 3

Female Jackson NSG mice (NOD.Cg-Prkdc^(scid) Il2rg^(tm1Wjl)/SzJ) aged 5-6 weeks old were used in this study. The mice were fed an irradiated Harlan 2918.15 Rodent Diet and water ad libitum. The mice were housed in Innovive™ disposable ventilated caging with corn cob bedding inside Biobubble® Clean Rooms that provide H.E.P.A filtered air into the bubble environment at 100 complete air changes per hour. All treatments, body weight determinations, and tumor measurements were carried out in the bubble environment. The environment was controlled to a temperature range of 70°±2° F. and a humidity range of 30-70%. All procedures were conducted in compliance with all the laws, regulations and guidelines of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and with the approval of Molecular Imaging, Inc.'s Animal Care and Use Committee.

Tumor Cell Preparation

U937-luc cells were obtained in Lifor® Preservation Solution. The cells were centrifuged at 200 rcf for 8 minutes at 4° C., the supernatant was aspirated, and the pellet was re-suspended in cold Dulbecco's Phosphate Buffered Saline (DPBS) by pipetting. An aliquot of the homogeneous cell suspension was diluted in a trypan blue solution and counted using a Luna™ automated cell counter. The cell suspension was centrifuged at 200 rcf for 8 minutes at 4° C. The supernatant was aspirated and the cell pellet was re-suspended in cold serum-free medium to generate the final concentrations of trypan-excluding cells/ml. The cell suspension was maintained on wet ice during implantation. Test animals were implanted with 1.00E+06 cells intravenously via the lateral tail vein on Day 0 in 0.2 ml using a 27-gauge needle and syringe.

CAR T-Cell Preparation

T cells according to the invention were obtained, frozen on dry ice, and stored in liquid nitrogen. On the day of treatment, the provided cryovials were removed from cryostorage and thawed in a 37° C. water bath. For each group, the provided T cells were combined into a single 50 ml conical tube with warm RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% FBS. The cryovial tubes were rinsed with warm RPMI 1640 with 10% FBS to minimize loss of cells to reach a total volume of 50 ml in each conical tube. Each 50 ml conical tube was centrifuged at 200 rcf for 8 minutes at 4° C. The supernatants were aspirated, and the cell pellets re-suspended in 10 ml of room temperature DPBS. An aliquot of the homogeneous cell suspension was diluted in a trypan blue solution and manually counted using a hemacytometer. The cell suspensions were again centrifuged at 200 rcf for 8 minutes at 4° C. The supernatants were aspirated and the cell pellets were re-suspended in room temperature DPBS to generate the required final concentrations. The cell suspensions were maintained on wet ice during treatment administration.

Bioluminescence Imaging

In vivo bioluminescence imaging (BLI) was performed using an IVIS Spectrum (Perkin Elmer, Hopkinton, MA). Animals were imaged up to 5 at a time under ˜1-2% isoflurane gas anesthesia. Each mouse was injected IP with 150 mg/kg (15 mg/ml) D-luciferin and imaged in the prone, then supine positions, 10 minutes following injection. Large to small binning of the CCD chip was used, and exposure time adjusted (2 seconds to 2 minutes) to obtain at least several hundred counts per image, and further to avoid saturation of the CCD chip. BLI images were collected on Days 3, 11, 18, and 25. Images were analyzed using the Living Image version 4.5 (Perkin Elmer, Hopkinton, MA) software. Whole body fixed-volume ROIs were placed on prone and supine images for each individual animal, and labeled based on animal identification. Total radiance expressed in photon/sec (p/s) was calculated and exported for all ROIs to facilitate analyses between groups. The prone and supine ROIs were summed together to estimate whole body tumor burden.

Treatment

All mice were sorted into study groups based on BLI-derived estimation of whole body tumor burden. The mice were distributed to ensure that the mean tumor burden for all groups was within 10% of the overall mean tumor burden for the study population. Treatment with CAR T cells began on Day 3. All mice were dosed with a fixed volume of 0.2 mL. The results are set forth in FIG. 10 .

Assessment of Side Effects

All animals were observed for clinical signs at least once daily. Animals were weighed on each day of treatment. Individual body weights were recorded 3 times weekly.
